Hi!

I create a power diagram using 
CGAL::Alpha_shape_2<CGAL::Regular_triangulation_2> 
 Now I want to intersect the dual of each edge of the alpha shape
with a set of circles. The circles and the rays are defined as follows:

typedef CGAL::Simple_cartesian<coord_type>  SC;
typedef CGAL::Filtered_kernel<SC> K;
typedef K::Circle_2 Circle;
typedef K::Ray_2 Ray;

I try to intersect them like this:

(r = Ray, iterCircleOne is the iterator of a vector<Circle_2>)

    K::Intersect_2 intersection;
    CGAL::Object o = intersection(*iterCircleOne, r);

but this fails:
/usr/bin/g++ -I../../include -Wall 
'-I/home/TZi/CGAL-3.3/include/CGAL/config/i686_CYGWINNT-5.1_g++-3.4.4'

CGAL::Filtered_kernel<SC>]':

matching function for call to `intersection(const 
CGAL::Circle_2<CGAL::Filtered_kernel<SC> >&, const 
CGAL::Ray_2<CGAL::Filtered_kernel<SC> >&, CGAL::Filtered_kernel<SC>)

Is there really no intersection for a circle and a ray defined? (or a
circle and a line, etc.)

Best regards,
